Hey listen Rob, I was not trying to give you a hard time (or split hairs). In fact I am grateful for your answer and your want to explain even more in depth than some of the one line answers on the list. The reason that I was splitting hairs was because I got 3 or 4 emails to my personal account regarding namespaces and what they were used for. Also, one of them quoted you and how you used "namespace ideology" in a object example. I should of explained more about the other emails and you would have seen up front that I was not giving you a hard time.
I am once again sorry to offend you and offend the list (if I did so).

I explicitly declare in my original response, at the beginning nonetheless, that PHP does not have namespaces, then I went on to explain what was meant in the link you had quoted. Since you didn't seem to understand, I thought using less technical language, and simplistic examples would help. It appears however, you weren't really interested in the answer, rather you were interested in splitting hairs with respect to the definition of "namespace". My humble apologies for wasting your time.
